Watch: Mourinho drags assistant manager by the neck during weird goal celebration
Mourinho’s side secured a 3-1 victory over Gaziantep on Monday thanks to late goals from Rodrigo Becao and Edin Dzeko.
With just 12 minutes remaining in the game, Becao put Mourinho's team ahead to keep their chase in their title race.
The win sees them reduce the point gap to three points behind Victor Osimhen’s Galatasaray on the league table.
Mourinho’s awkward moment
During Fenerbahce's clash against Gaziantep, Mourinho was seen dragging his assistant coach on the collar.
Following Becao's goal, players and coaches gathered in a huge touchline huddle, causing crazy scenes.
According to the Sun, Mourinho was having none of it and wanted to make a defensive substitution to secure the three points.
Mourinho requested for Zeki Murat Gole, his assistant, to coach the defence, but he was among the people who were rejoicing over Becao's goal.
Mourinho then went into the crowded coaches and pulled the coach back to the dugout by his hoody as a result.
